The ${}_{}{}^{29}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Si}$(p,γ), ${}_{}{}^{29}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Si}$(p,${\mathit{p}}_1$γ), and ${}_{}{}^{29}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Si}$(p,${\mathit{p}}_2$γ) reactions have been studied in the energy range ${\mathit{E}}_{\mathit{p}}$=2.025–3.310 MeV. Thirteen previously unknown resonances were observed, and γ-ray strengths were measured for 51 resonances. Elastic and inelastic scattering differential cross sections were measured near 23 resonances in the energy region ${\mathit{E}}_{\mathit{p}}$=0.94–3.32 MeV which had not been previously observed in elastic scattering. These measurements represent the first step in experiments to establish a complete level scheme for ${}_{}{}^{30}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{P}$ for the purpose of studying chaotic behavior in this system; the current state of knowledge of levels in ${}_{}{}^{30}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{P}$ is briefly discussed.
